- Knowledge and Organization in the Theory of the Multinational Corporation: Some Foundational Issues (2006, background): “conform to the Generelization is Birkinshaw et al. (2002). 2 The classical mathematics reference is Pontryagin et al.”
- Organizing Knowledge Processes in the Multinational Corporation: An Introduction (2004, background): “Knowledge complexity, differentiation and specialization, complementarity and interdependence are emerging as important contingencies affecting effective organization and governance solutions' (e.g., Kogut and Zander, 1993; Birkinshaw et al., 2002; Foss and Pedersen, 2002).”
- A Model of Organizational Integration, Implementation Effort, and Performance (2005, background): “As such, characteristics of the knowledge residing in each unit, including its codifiability (Hansen 1999), observability and embeddedness (Birkinshaw et al. 2002) are likely to influence the ease with which OI can be achieved.”
- Parent Company Benefits from Reverse Knowledge Transfer: The Role of the Liability of Newness in MNEs (2011, background): “Older subsidiaries may have developed the mechanisms and relationships needed to share knowledge within the MNE over time, an argument also suggested by Birkinshaw, Nobel, and Ridderstrale (2002), and Frost and Zhou (2005).”
- Integrating Distributed Work: Comparing Task Design, Communication and Tacit Coordination Mechanisms (2011, background): “Knowledge stickiness impedes the transfer of knowledge necessary for implementing the process from one set of personnel to another set of personnel (Birkinshaw et al., 2002; Szulanski, 1996; von Hippel, 1994; 1998; Zander & Kogut, 1995) – in this case from onsite personnel to offshore personnel.”
